Regional Outlook

Updated to Q4 2019

MA availabilities may grow in Q4, as besides healthy operations at regional plants, the flow of Chinese exports to the region may resume, especially if domestic requirements in China start to dip on a year-end seasonal lull. If the latter scenario materialises, Chinese MA makers will likely pursue export sales more actively to relieve inventory pressures.

The likelihood of a resolution of the protracted US-China trade disputes within the quarter is slim, and as such, the wider expectation is that the current impasse in regional economic growth will likely persist. This will in turn dampen MA requirements, as end-users will slow fresh purchases lest they be saddled with excessive stocks should downstream consumption fail to pick up.
